THE BILLIONAIRE'S FIGHT TO WIN HER BACK Chapter Twenty One
Lucas's POVWhen I entered my hospital room, my phone rang. Steadying my breath, I picked up. It was Robert. We’d already spoken earlier that day, so when his call came through, I knew something important had happened."What's the latest development?" I asked, lying down on the bed. I rubbed my temple, trying to ease the headache that was gnawing at me."The attacker has been caught by the police, but he poisoned himself before they could get any useful information out of him.""What?!" I sat up, panic flooding through me. This was no ordinary attack. Anyone willing to go as far as covering their tracks with murder wasn't just an average person."Yes, but just before the police picked him up, he met with a man on the outskirts of the city. We’ve been tracking this man. So far, his activities seem normal, but we’re not sure if he’s connected to the attempt on Elena’s life. He’s our closest link, though.""Are the police aware of this?""No, they aren’t. He was arrested only minutes aft

Elena’s POVA week had passed since I was discharged from the hospital, and everything still seemed vague. At different times, police officers visited my house, but there was no tangible information. I had to work from home, and some of my clients had to have their consultations with me via video conference. Victor had been calling to ensure I was fine, and despite my refusal, one of his bodyguards was sent to my house because the agency I reached out to was dragging their feet.I was overwhelmed, and I jumped at every sound at night. My beautiful life was suddenly exchanged with uncertainty. Still, I tried to remain positive. The police would get to the root of the matter. I kept telling myself over and over.It was time for my check-up, and I needed to visit the hospital. My driver drove me in my car while a police car trailed behind me. All the way to the doctor’s office, I refused to think about Lucas—or his touch! Especially his touch! One week, yet the memory of his hand around

Lucas’s POVAs soon as Elena hung up on me, I exhaled, trying not to get upset. I had hurt her, and I had to endure whatever she threw at me in the process of trying to win her back.“Lucas, your chicken broth will get cold. You should eat it…” Mother said from behind me. I turned and walked to the dining area, exhaling softly due to the sharp jabs of pain I was feeling at my side. My mansion had been unusually quiet since I sent Sabrina packing. She had insisted it was a lie, but the evidence I had was more than enough proof. Since she left, my mother and sister had been extra cautious around me, and scared because of the attack I had at the hospital.As soon as the doctor arrived that day, they gave me IV medication to reverse the paralysis, but none of it worked until about an hour later, just like the woman had said.Who was she?!The police had searched the entire perimeter of the hospital, but it was like she vanished into thin air. The two bodyguards assigned to the entrance o

"What the hell are you doing in my house? How do you know my address? How do you know when the men came into my house?" I said, glaring at Robert. I wouldn’t deny the fact that I was relieved; if they hadn't stepped in, my kids could have been hurt. Though Claire claimed one of the armed men was in my bedroom looking for something, while the other one held the nanny—who had my kids in her arms—at gunpoint. What could they be searching for? I wasn’t sure. But then she had stumbled upon them when she got into my house, ran, and hid in the closet of the guest room. That was when she called me.Hearts pounding, I had called Lucas, and he had the audacity to make a joke out of the whole situation."Ma'am..." Robert started."Now I’m 'ma’am'? What happened to Elena? I’m suddenly ‘ma’am’?" I said, throwing my hands in the air and shaking my head simultaneously.I saw the strain on his face. He had refused to let me enter Lucas’s mansion three years ago. He had stripped me of the respect he o

Elena's POV"I've been waiting forever," I said into the phone, trying hard to keep my anger in check."We're sorry, ma'am. We needed to ensure we sent men suited for your situation. Also, one of our best men, Ardon, had escorted a dignitary to France and just returned two days ago. Apart from the others, he is also the man for the job. He’s leading the team.""Fine. My assistant told me they're on their way." I pulled Mia to my side. She kept looking around in fear, and I hated that."Yes, they should be there any minute now.""Alright. Send me an invoice and any other information I need to know.""It's been forwarded to your official email.""Can they start working right away?" I asked, looking up to see Robert standing in the doorway of my bedroom. Sighing, I got up, my eyes blazing with anger."Right away, ma'am. They are officially your bodyguards now until you no longer need them.""Thank you," I muttered and ended the call."Ma’am, we need to move you away from—" Robert started

Lucas's POV"What do you mean she sent you out of her house?" I said, standing up from my bed.Why would Elena hire men when Robert is more than capable?“She recruited men from Toplik security. They’re good. I can’t set up surveillance on her anymore, or I’ll be discovered. Toplik trains the best," Robert said, his voice strained.“You should have insisted, Robert,” I said, running my hands through my hair and letting out a frustrated sigh.“I did, but she was adamant. I’m worried about the kids too.”“How about you speak to the head of her security? See if he’ll let you monitor them from a distance?”“He wouldn’t allow it. Toplik security is strict with their operations. They won’t let an outsider near them.”I fell quiet for a moment. Protecting her and the kids was one thing, but I also wanted Elena back under my roof. I wanted to reignite the flames between us. It was selfish, but I had to take my shot.“Did you check out the worker who picked up the package from someone…?”“Yes,

Elena’s Pov“How dare you… Elena, you betrayed me!” Lucas shouted, his fist clenched in anger. In one swift move, he threw the DNA results at me, and they landed at my feet.“Lucas… I would never hurt you. I don’t understand…” I stammered, feeling confused. The twins were his. I had never cheated on him. And why did he do a DNA test in the first place? Lucas had never doubted me.“Stop lying!” Isabella’s voice cut through the silence, full of anger. “We all knew you saw him as an opportunity. But we only played along because he liked you… and now, you’ve been exposed.”Flashes from cameras filled the room, blinding me as they captured every moment. This was supposed to be our fourth wedding anniversary, a celebration of love. Lucas had insisted on making it big, inviting the press, dignitaries, and so many people. But now, it was turning into a scandal that would be talked about for days. The whispers of the crowd grew louder.I tried to stay calm, looking into Lucas’s eyes. He looked

Elena’s PovThe night air hit me as I walked out of the hall, the heavy doors slamming shut behind me. My heels clicked on the pavement, and my legs were killing me, but I barely noticed. The whispers and camera flashes were gone now, replaced with my silent despair.I needed to get back to my twins, Mia and Max. They were all that mattered. Lucas’s words still echoed in my mind—calling them bastards, denying they were his. It hurt more than anything else. He was my first love; the only man I ever gave my body to. Struggling against the crisp wind, I Increased my pace. When I reached the mansion gates, the head of security, Robert, approached me. His face didn’t show the usual warmth. “Elena,” he said quietly. “Mr. Lucas instructed me to pack your things. The twins will be brought to you shortly.” I was no longer “Mrs. Lucas” or “ma’am,” but Elena. My heart sank and my eyes filled with painful tears. “No. I’ll get them myself.” Robert shook his head, a flash of pity in his eyes. “

Lucas’s POV “Lucas... I’m so glad you’re okay,” Sabrina said, as soon as I walked into her hospital room. She forced herself to sit up, her hand pressed to her side. The pretense was nauseating. I said nothing, merely observing her as my mother and sister rushed to her side. “Lucas, I couldn’t stand it when they told me you had only a few hours to live... I was devastated. I had to step in and give you my liver... It was either that or you dying,” Sabrina said. The past three years rushed through my mind like a whirlwind—every action, every gesture, all of it a lie. What if I had considered her and married her after Elena left? I would’ve been marrying a pretender. She framed her own sister, her own flesh and blood. Abandoned her niece and nephew in a hotel room—my kids. My blood boiled, and I turned away, trying to hide my anger. Now she was here, taking Elena’s glory once again. Were they even aware that Elena was the one who gave the liver? “Lucas...” Isabella called out to me.

Elena's POV "So, I’ll see you around?" Victor asked as we pulled up in front of my house, still holding my hand. "Well, maybe, Victor..." I said with a smile, glancing at my house. All I wanted right now was to hold my babies. "Come on, we have that pending dinner, Elena." "I need to recover..." I paused, almost saying, "I need to recover fully from the surgery," but instead, I settled for, "I need to recover from all this. And besides, my attacker is still out there. I can’t be going about my normal routine for now..." "That’s true... How about we have dinner at your place or mine? I’ll hire professionals to set up everything—the table, the food, the atmosphere..." "Victor..." I nudged him, trying to keep things light. "Come on, Elena. I’m not about to let someone else whisk you away..." By "someone else," I sensed he meant Lucas. A twinge of worry crept in. Was this turning into some sort of competition to win my heart? I pushed the thought aside, smiling at Victor. His hands

Elena's POV"Lena? That's a nice nickname..." Victor said a few minutes after we left the hospital. My driver was following behind us in my car, because Victor had insisted that I ride with him."Yeah.." I responded quickly. I didn't want to have any conversation about Lucas, especially not with Victor, so I shifted my gaze to him and said, "Thank you, Victor. Thank you for looking out for me.""You're welcome, Elena. So, tell me, what happened between you and Lucas Sterling? I mean, he's a catch..." Victor said, smiling at me.Is he kidding me? Didn’t he read the news three years ago?"I'm sure you read about the scandal, and I honestly do not want to go over that anymore, Victor. It's been three years, and I’d like to keep it buried..." I said, adjusting in my seat so I could gaze at the sky."Well, I heard about a scandal three years ago, but the details were vague. Specifically, because I was uninterested. Scandals are no longer news for we billionaires, so when I see one, I could
